Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Economic Development, Human Service Organizations, Human Services, Job Training, Vocational Rehabilitation
Mission: Our mission is to enrich the lives of underserved and disadvantaged people, through providing and teaching the tools of technology. Our goal is to create job and educational opportunities for the people we serve, in other words "teach people how to fish" and help them create better opportunities for themselves, their families and their community.
Programs: The Transforming Lives with Computers (TLC) Program provides computers and training to economically disadvantaged, under-skilled and unemployed adults, single parents, and other community members lacking the adequate computer skills and educational resources needed to secure and maintain skilled jobs with which to support themselves and their families. The TLC Program is entering its third year with a substantial increase in used computer donations. In the second half of 2002 alone we will have received over 170 used computer donations from companies and individuals. These computers are then refurbished and upgraded to a level suitable for learning basic computer skills needed in the job market and educational arena. The computers are then placed at community and outreach centers, and training is provided on essentials such as word processing and spreadsheets, as well as the basics of the Internet and e-mail.
